001Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, liberty and justice for all. Uh any changes to the any questions? Motion to approve by Chris, second by Dusty. All those in favor say I. I. All those opposing it. Okay. Public comment. Anybody? Tori might have something to say, but I don't know if she wants to. I'm not sure. On the boarding. Yes. Should be your chance to say something. It's your chance. I don't know. It's your chance to say something. If you have anything to say, speak now or forever. [Music] Anybody? Um, I'm Mrs. And I really appreciate the fact that this was brought up because I think four days a week is really beneficial um for I think for fatigue
002for the for the teachers at the end of the week. I'm not sure which day we're going to have off this Monday or Friday, but either one, it'll be nice and for the students as well and they could take the time off and maybe do catch up with their classwork and stuff like that. Um, awesome. Thank you. Anybody else? Tori, you want Did you want to say or No, it's public comment. Yeah, it's public comment. It's for I have lots of comments today. Moving on. First it a new business is the uh 4 day week. Okay. So, uh members of the board, so thank you very much for being here. I know that this is a special board meeting and thank you for your time. I know that you have better things to do. We're
003going to try to expedite this rather quickly so all of you can attend the uh FFA banquet. So um you do have the PowerPoint. Oh, go ahead. And if you don't mind changing it. Okay. So uh we have the slides right over there. So if there's anybody online, they could also be able to see them. So basically what we are doing is we are exploring a new path for student success and then you know community growth. And our proposal here is you know transforms how we deliver education while we are strengthening our community. So the rationale why we need to consider a 4 day uh week first of all you know for Heggerman teacher retention and that is very important because we really don't have much to offer other than we do have the small
004class sizes and Heggerman is Haggarman is a wonderful community however you know for teacher retention we do have you know our teacher turnover rates stand at 18% that's on a normal year. Sometimes it's much much higher and the state average is only 12%. So by we definitely want to be able to retain the best teachers and we want to be able to attract the best teachers to come to to Heggerman. So a 4-day schedule will help attract and and keep the quality educators in in our community. Now, as far as cost efficiency, so the projection is that we will be able to save 15% utility savings on Fridays when buildings remain closed or Mondays. So, these savings can be redirected to the classrooms uh resources and the uh programs we will be able to save
005as well not just on the utilities but also cafeteria cost as well as transportation etc. And then very important it's the the well-being you know focus. So uh reduce burnout. Uh Mrs. Parashi just mentioned that. So reduce burnout for students and staff which leads to better learning outcomes. So the extra day will allow for recovery planning and personal growth. So we do have some potential benefits you know of course the academic achievement and student life. So with the 4day our plan is to be able to increase the attendance rate. So schools with the 4 day week report 3 to 5% attendance increases which that will you know help us uh significantly here. So students miss fewer days and then you know enrich learning. So the fifth day it opens doors for internships and we've been
006talking about having um students and like in Miss Dink's class that they have to go out and do community service, they can definitely be able to do that on the fifth day. And then also for the CTE, if some of the students want to do an internship and be able to work, then they'll be able to do this as well as some of the extended projects that need to be done. and uh family benefits. So, families, you know, uh they save anywhere from $500 to $1,000 annually on child care. However, you know, uh we don't have a child care facility other than the one in Dexter. So, but this will, you know, it's more quality time together which strengthens the families. Now, of course, we understand that there's some potential uh challenges in child care
007and food security. So, child care the there, you know, we can have partnerships with uh local organizations which will provide affordable fifth day options for families. That was one of the concerns that many of the families, you know, express that they don't have child care for Friday. However, my proposal is that because we do have we are a community schools. So my proposal is and this will be only based on need then community schools will kick in and be able to have like a I can't call it a babysitting services but it will be tutoring services for Fridays and that will be based on the need only. So we probably have to have a some kind of application where the you know families will fill out the application and the the students will be selected
008only if you know the parents need the services. So possibly anywhere from 15 to 20 students. We just don't want to open it to everybody because that will just defeat the purpose. But I think we could we'll be able to hire a couple of teachers that would want to be able to do Fridays and then we'll be able to to uh do this and and uh help us out with that. Now, the food security, we had uh several parents who they expressed the concern about what the kids, you know, will be eating on Fridays. I was talking to Celia and I have also been talking to many of the other schools that are already in the 4 day week and I asked them, okay, do you send home a sack lunch with the kids? And
009some of them they do have, it's called a backpack program that what they do is they they'll send home peanut butter bread and things that the kids can can eat at home. However, they don't necessarily send a SAP lunch with every student because really that will not be a savings anymore. It most of the the students all that what they will do is they'll just go and throw it in the in the trash. So, however, I did express to the parents that were there and they had concerns if they really need a sack of lunch, I don't think the cafeteria staff will be able to, you know, they won't say no. So they'll be able to to provide that similar for them. And then uh some of the parents they also expressed concerns about longer
010school days. So you know these days will be restructured schedules will include breaks and engaging activities to maintain focus. This is something else that I spoke with Selia our cafeteria manager and because the kids the plan is for the kids to be here a little bit longer during the day. So, you know, they will be getting a uh snack sometime about 2 maybe 2:00 2:30 so that they can endure the the the day. So, the day for the students, the projected or proposal is for the students to be here from 7:55 in the morning until 3:55 every day. High school possibly about 4:00 because we need to have standard times for the busing. you know, we have to let the elementary go first and then the uh the high school students which will be about
011five minutes later. No, not really, you know, not nothing major. Now, some of the financial implications, you know, savings and reinvestments. So, uh, there's a $75,000 annual savings. You know, again, it will be lower transportation cost, the utility, the substitute teachers costs, you know, and a lot of the the um, for example, some of the games in A-Rod, if you want to go ahead and and talk about this, like the uh games on Fridays and then sometimes we just don't have transportation, etc. time. So, a lot of uh if you look at like a Friday game, um you know, I'm gone and I require a sub for a couple class periods still. Um Coach Scott's gone. He requires a sub. Um you know, we we uh we may have another assistant coach um that's in
012house for for the girls, too, and they probably require sub as well. Um and that's for basketball. Um tournaments will we might be gone all day on the Thursday, might be gone all day on the Friday. And actually districts are pretty good about travel on the Thursday, but that Friday is kind of up in the air. So, you know, Fridays we're we're gone all day. If we have Friday off, we don't have to get sub uh all day. Uh track, we have what, five teachers or or certified staff that would leave during the day. And you know, track meets start at we have to be there at 2 o'clock for the scratch meeting. Um, most venues are an hour and a half to two hours away. So, you know, you do the math and that's
013leaving anywhere from uh 11 o'clock to to 12:00 in the afternoon and that's five subs give or take depending on the magnitude of the week. So, um most weeks are on Friday at the end of the week and having that Friday off would mean that we don't have to pay those subs for those events. Okay. And then of course the um all the savings will go back into the educational resources and teacher development. Change page. Okay. So now we're in the school year 2425. So uh we already had uh surveys. There was a couple of surveys that went out and then um we had a parent meeting. So if you look at this page that you have, I gave you a copy this one right here. This one actually it is the uh digital survey.
014It's a copy of the digital survey. So as you can see here, we had 68 of the of the parents who uh returned this 68 or 68 parents voted yes, 13 voted no, and then five were very neutral. Of course, we wanted to reach out to more um parents, so we also send out a hard copy. And the hard copy, it looks like well, we got a little bit less. Again, some of these parents had already filled it out, and that was an indication that if they had already filled out the digital copy, they they didn't have to return the um the hard copy. So, for the hard copy, we had 57 yes, 23 no, and 10 neutral. So that gives us a total of 125 yes that was 31%. Currently we have 405 students.
015So that's 31% yes. 36 total no. So that's a 9%. And then 15 parents you know uh were neutral and that's only a 4%. I wish we had 100% participation but unfortunately you know that doesn't happen. However, I would like for you to to um look at some of the comments and if you turn to the back page. So, this page right here and came straight from the comments, some of them from the comments from the uh the digital and some from the uh hard copy. And this one is we have the pros and the the cons. So, here's the benefits that were shared by the parents. Oh, that was your job at that was my job at the yours and um and just a little thing about the the survey. I think the numbers
016may be a little misleading because they did one per household, not necessarily one per child in our district. And so, some people may have multiple children across our district and only did the survey one time versus doing it five or six times. So, we probably had an opportunity to find out how many children they had in the district and we didn't ask that question. But anyways, those the surveys um I think that the benefits that parents were looking forward to is that maybe it would be less time that their child would have to miss school due to appointments or if they were out of town for whatever reason, more time for their family to do family activities or rest. Um help prevent teacher student burnout, opportunity for better work life balance, um to support the
017scheduling needs for families that share custody of children, especially if they have to travel to another town for those custody arrangements. It gives an extra day in there for that travel and that thing that to happen for kids who have weekend visitation with other parents. Um potential to improve behavior and motivate students. Um and some of these are a little repetitive. Um positive feedback. I think that was one of the things that we really like is that the the other schools who have adopt this see a lot of positive things. You guys are well aware that some of the best districts in our state are are already on a 4-day week calendar. They have some of the best test results. So that has to speak for something. And then more time for students to work
018on homework and reduce their stress over having to do so much, especially for our really involved students. Do you want me to also talk about the concerns? Okay. The concerns that the day is going to be longer and maybe for especially for younger kids, a longer school day could be harder on the younger kids. Um worries about a shorter summer break or longer school year, a lack of child care options for fifth day for those parents who work outside the home. Um, concerns about academic regression, especially for reading and math. Uh, students with IEPs or special needs may be more impacted by a change of this type of schedule. A loss of enrichment activities that we traditionally have on Fridays. Parents feel like there may be a need for more information or data to justify
019this switch. Uh, the possible loss of meals or nutritional support for some students who on the off days who do rely on school for their food. Um, and then some parents were in favor of considering Mondays off instead of Fridays just due to the way the world works and sometimes there's a lot of places that are closed on Fridays versus being closed on Mondays and the concerns about how kids who are here if we're keeping kids here at 4:00 and kids who are going to practice and stuff would they have would they be hungry and have time to get a snack before they have to do their evening activities. So, okay. And some of the frequent uh you know asked questions from the parents were will school day be longer under the schedule. So uh
020yes so the pro again we the plan is to be the students will come in at 7:55 which that's you know the normal time and they will be exiting at 3:55. So the students they need to they cannot go over this is as per they cannot go over 7.5 hours uh per day. Okay. the staff will be here a little bit longer and then at at a future meeting um I will be you know just to get the approval for the staff hours but currently so I have for the staff for example they will be here from 7:30 in the morning and they will be here from 7:30 to 4:30 and that uh with a 30 minute lunch so that's 8.5 hours one Friday a month for the staff you know the plan is to
021have the staff here so we could do professional development and that would be I have that so for example the first one will be so the plan is to be able to start on July the 28th and you could see that on your the calendar the copy of the calendar that I gave you I cannot give you guys a copy just yet because it's not approved yet so uh if you see the staff will start on July 28th that it is a week earlier than usual so staff will be here from 7:30 to 4:30 that day and that's 8.5 hours. So they'll be here having uh staff professional development on the 28th, 29th, the 30th. The first day with students will be on the 31st and then also on the 1st. So that first Friday,
022the students will be here two days a week. That will be the 31st, July 31st and then August the 1st. The first PD will be in August and that's also in the well actually the PD does not show in the in the the calendar here but the first PD will be on August the 15th and again that's from 7:30 to 1:30. So that's 5.5 hours of PD and every month we have a uh PD. So for example, you know, like September, we have um we have Labor Day on September the 1st. So that means that the four instructional days will be on the 2nd, the 3rd, the 4th, and the 5th. And then we have the same thing on September the 29th. We have fair day, no school. So then the instructional days will be
023September the 30th, October the the 1st, 2nd and then the 3rd uh the next uh in October. So, we actually have no PD day in October, but we do have parent teacher conferences. And the parent teacher conferences, those um count as professional um learning days in November. In November, as you can see, we have election day. So, instructional day will be on the 3. And then we have no school on the 4th, November the 4th. But then you know there will be school on the 5th, the 6th and the 7th and that will be the the four days. And then there is that one. We do have a professional development. It's on the 14th, November the 14th from 7:30 to 1:30 p.m. In December, there's no school on none of the Fridays and there's no
024PD on on, you know, for December. January, we do have a professional development day that will be January the 5th. So that means that instructional days will be on the 6th, 7th, 8th, and the 9th. And then we have on the 19th, January the 19th, we have Martin Luther King. So there's no school, but then the kids will be here. Instructional days will be on the 20th, 21st, 22nd, and the 23rd. For February, we have parent teacher conferences on the 13th. So, we do have parent teacher conferences also on the 12th and the 13th, but if you can see on the well, it doesn't show on this one here, but the 12th there's uh the staff will be here from 7:30 to 4:30 regular day. And then parent teacher conferences from 4:30 to 7:30. That's
025a total of 3 hours. And then the next day from 7:30 to 12:30. So that's an additional five hours of uh you know parent teacher conferences which also counts as PD. On the 16th, February the 16th, we have President's Day. So there's no school. So that means instructional days will be 17, 18, 19th, and the 20th. In March, we have no PD. However, we do have a spring break, and this is the 16th through the 20th. April the 3, it's Good Friday, so there's no school on Friday, but then you know the the instructional days will be Monday through Thursday. And then in May, the last PD, the last instructional day for the students will be on the 21st, May 21st. And uh PD day for staff will be on um the last day 7:30
026to 1:30 p.m. And that will be on the 22nd. And that concludes so basically the time it's pretty much the same. With that I stand for questions. Any questions from this? So, are all the schools that are doing four days, are they this mixed as far as, oh, well, we're out this day, so we're going to I mean, how are they combating absences on Fridays? Because, oh, we forgot we thought we were out Fridays. How are we combating the So, I when u the schedule was created, you know, loving, they are a 4 day. Dexter is now a 4 day. So they also kind of went by with the the loving schedule. So Dexter schedule and our schedule, the way it's created, it's pretty similar. Um there's a few differences, but anyways, u then other
027other schools that have a 4-day, you know, they we kind of mirror it. They're it's pretty much the same. Having taught in a 4-day school week, when I when I taught in Elida for two years, it was kind of an understanding. Hey, if it's a Monday holiday and we take the Monday holiday, be at school on Friday because there we have to be at school four days that week no matter what for and I think it's probably going to take education on our part to make sure kids know that. If you look at the calendar at the very bottom, it says 154 student days and then for staff we have 159 days. That will be for and as long right now as long as we meet the 1140 hours, we are okay. We actually surpassed
028that. We have a little bit more than the the 1140 and I believe it's like 11:57. We might need them for the wind. Hopefully not. Hopefully not, but you never know. Mother nature is very unpredictable. Now, our meeting, it went on a good three hours. It I thought, you know, for the most part, it was a really good meeting, but it went on forever. And uh, you know, I mean, there's legit concerns. Some of the parents have concerns. Some of the parents thought that we're only doing this for the staff, but what about for the kids? And one of them, okay, what about the well-being of the parents? And I mean it was it was we listen to to all of their concerns. The only thing I think and it if we are going to
029do this it definitely needs to be done. This is the time to do it because it's open. We might not be able to do it next year. And I am very concerned that now with Dexter going to a 4day they already approved there's a possibility that I don't want to lose any of my teachers and I don't want to lose any of our kids you know going to Dexter. So if we try this and it doesn't work out then it'll be pretty easy to go back to a 5day. Yes. But if we don't try this, there is there is no going from just saying, "Hey, we're going to go to a 4 day." Correct. Correct. And you know, and those of you that have been here, you know, longer than others, and I mean, if
030you recall, we we've tried this before, not going into a 4 day, but the potential of we look into it. Okay, what do we need to do? But then PE kind of had a halt to it and they're like, no, it's not going to happen. Now they are being kind of flexible and and they are allowing the school district to do it as long as we meet the 1140 hours in the future. We don't know what's going to happen. So with this I mean you know if you have any more questions and A-Rod was there part of the panel um Cody Mr. Williams we'll try to answer if you have any questions any concerns and you know, can I comment? I'm sorry. Sure. Okay. Um, I I'm I came from Lovington to come and teach
031here and I've enjoyed it thoroughly. And what I was going to tell you, there's a lot of people, teachers, I try and because we do have a turnover. And I say, "Hey, we need this, we need that." The first thing they say, "Is it 4 day?" "No, it's five day." Oh, I'm looking for a 4day. Well, come on. You know, I try to sell it. That is. And you know, that's what I I was because it's happened last year, year before when we lost, we didn't have some of the teachers and I've been here more than five years and graduated here and I want to get the teachers here and good teachers. The other thing I was going to tell you in the middle school they I guess they got surveys too when they talk
032with parents a lot of them are very excited. They go I like that I can be off on Friday. I said no no and you know I comment to them no no no you're a you're not going to sleep till noon. No miss we're going to it's just nice to rest and not feel pressured to do our homework. We can and that's what they say. Um, and I said, "Well, we'll see." I said, "But that's what you like." Yes. And uh, you know, because I I communicate a lot with them and I want to hear them. And uh, they asked me and I said, "Well, how I feel is I had to go to a lot of doctor's appointments and I ran it ran out of sick time. Thank goodness for sick bay and they
033helped me. And so now I still have to go to well today I went physical therapy blah blah blah that I can schedule on Friday and I'm thankful for that and for this lady that helped me tremendously in that one. So I like that is one of the top two questions that we get is are you a four day week? Do you have housing? when we're looking to recruit people, those are the two things that they those are the number two the two questions that we get asked the most candidates looking at considering to come work here. So, um you know, we we had some questions in regards to staff and so what I'm trying to do right now is, you know, the staff will be here until 4:30. I was looking at it. Right
034now we have where the the teachers work 37.5. It's 37 hours.5 you know weekly. The same thing for teacher assistance. Um cafeteria I believe they have 35 say 35 or 37. What do you have? 37. 37. So it's the same 37.5. Custodians 40 hours. Maintenance they have uh 40. So, I've been, you know, asking like for example, loving the custodians. They do they work nine hour uh nine hours a day. So, that's only 36 hours a week, but then they have to be here on Fridays because Fridays is the day that they could actually do some buffing, you know, the floors and and or you know, we could have them work 10our shifts. So, I don't see excuse me, I don't see a problem with the cafeteria. and I met with Celia and next year
035the cafeteria there will be some changes and they will be the one of the requirements is that in the cafeteria 50% of the food that it's being cooked has to be made from scratch. So, in other words, these ladies, in order to be able to do that, they have to come in at 5:'lock in the morning. And we're thinking, you know, maybe 5 to possibly 2:30. And that that should give them the time, you know, that they need so that they can put in their hours. And that's about the only thing that we can think that way because whatever they make, if they're making uh biscuits, they have to make those biscuits from scratch. So, you know, 50% of whatever they cook, it has to be from scratch. So, that's it's it's going to take
036a little bit more time for them. I don't have any questions. [Applause] Okay. So, I just need a motion to approve. I'll make a motion by Dusty. I'll second. Second by Trevor. All those in favor say I. I. Those oppos. Thank you. Um, next item is the calendar. We need Wait, we need a moment. We need a moment. Thank you. Appreciate it. Thank you. Okay. You want to cry? What about yourself? No, I think I think it's going to be great. And I have talked to, as a matter of fact, you know, and this is not on the agenda, but um we had we already hired our new coach and he is coming our football coach and he's coming from a 4-day week. And he was like he he was just excited that that you
037know, we're thinking about implementing this and he was saying that once you go to 4 day, you know, there's not going back because it's the best thing. Well, y'all have a lot of exciting kids because I've been asked by So, thank you very much and you know and we let's try it and if it doesn't work we can always go back to to regular we'll make it work. Okay. So, um then the next item the approval of the calendar for 2526. I mean I do have calendars here but if we are already approving the four day there's no need for for me to even give you a copy of those. So this is the proposed calendar for the four days. So basically pretty much what I reviewed a while ago. This is the calendar again.
038You guys can have a copy now. I don't have enough but one. And then here's a few. You might have to share and look on with each other. I don't think we'll get to copies of it just yet. You'll get them tomorrow in your email. Not yet. So, so after this we will discard just in case there needs to be any any changes. Okay. Um, so if you can see I mean uh the teachers will start where they have the first three days as professional development. The kids will be here on the 31st. It's the first day of school. They'll be here on the 31st and the 1st in August. Every day will be um so as you can see the gray is the days that there's no school. The teachers will be getting a
039calendar like this. And I know this is going to be kind of difficult, but this one here shows them the times that they need to be here from 7:30. We're going to do 7:30 to 4:30 every day. And this one here, I mean, it's um pretty much it, you know, there's days that they have 30, you know, 34 hours in a week, but then the following week they have like 41.2. So that kind of offsets, you know, the the weeks and um so the teachers will be getting this. However, this one I will have the approval for the next uh board meeting. I'll request for approval on that one. And then um September again, we have the first as Labor Day and the 29th as the um fair day. And uh so you know you
040could see the days that we have off October uh the 1st uh the 9th will be the end of the nine weeks then the 17th. So we have October the 16th and the 17th. The only thing is that because this one will go to pet. last year PED they were very confused because we had if you look on the 17th it's shaded kind of like a peach color and that's parent teacher conferences but we had it on the 16th and the 17th so they thought well why are they doing two days so they thought that we were not in school but I explained to them that what we do is the teachers and the kids are in school and then we do conferences at the end of the day then uh the next day we
041have conferences again but it's only for May to 12th and then um so we will do the same thing. So this calendar will be for pet and then um you know I will do another one something like this so that you know parent well parents will be able to see this one but we will let the parents know that conferences will be in the evening and then again the next day November now we have to take a day for um it's election day so that is a national holiday now so there will be no school on the 4th and then we have the entire week the 24th through the 28th for Thanksgiving break. December, the last day for the students and the staff will be on the 18th. Okay. And then we have Christmas break
042from the 22nd through uh the 2nd. On the 5th, and this is a change from Dexter's calendar that I noticed. So they have the students starting on the 5th. So students come back on the 5th, 6th, 7th, and the eth. And then their professional development is on the 9th. I think if we just give them that extra day, we've always had it like this and I think it'll be a lot easier to give the kids the extra day and then uh you know give them travel time. The students will start on the 6th and then we should be okay. February we have on the 12th and the 13th again we have conferences. the 12 in the evening, the 13th, and I believe we'll have conferences until 12:30 or one o'clock. Um, and then the 16th
043it is President's Day. Uh, March the 5th, it's the end of the third nine weeks. And then, um, we have spring break. Spring break, it's the same as the Roswell schools, Dexter and, uh, Lake Arthur, as well as the university. So, we all have the same uh spring break. April the 3, it's Good Friday. And then May the uh 16th will be our graduation for this coming year. However, uh just like this year, you know, PE wants the kids to well, actually right now, as long as we have the 1140, we're okay. But then the kids might have to be here a few more days just to come and pick up their report cards and and you know, just be able to do a closeup. And then the last day for all of the students
044will be on the 21st. Teachers will be here on the 22nd. There's no we have no more early release for students because you know they'll be here the four day the four days and then that's that's the end of it in in May. So it's a total of 154 student days which is 11 I believe it's 1157 uh hours which you know we only need 118 so we're good there. And for staff, it's 159 days, but there's a few more days that they have to be here on Friday. Any questions? So, we're getting we're telling them they're getting every Friday off, but then we're taking the very first Friday. Yeah. Well, and I think a list like these are the Fridays in school that we may have to put some of that education piece out
045there just so people can put on their calendar that it's a Friday school. And Dexter did the same thing if they missed like that Monday they had to come on Friday. Yes, correct. So, we do have a typo here. And if you look on uh the on the right side, it says August the 7, first day of school. It's actually July 31st. So, that's a change that I need to go in and change and make. And this is our 4day calendar. Any other questions? motion by Chris second. Second by Trevor. Okay. So, thank you very much. This has been pending so that we can start with our budget which is due next week. All those in favor say I. I motion carries. Uh uh yes. So the reason that I want to do this, you
046know, we did discuss a little bit at the last meeting. However, we it was never uh we kind of tabled it and uh so we are considering contracting with um quality janitorial services for the 2526 academic school year. So based on the quoted daily rate and you know our projected number of student contact days, the total contract amount is as follows. So um previously we had discussed that the daily rate would be $579. That's what they will charge us. And we had discussed that we would contract them for 180 days. However, we have here I have a number of service days possibly 164. It will be my plan is just to have them here when uh to clean up for the students but there might be a few more days that they need to be
047here and uh help out. So the number of service days would be 164. This is a total of 94,956 and with the tax 7,199.35. So that the total contract will be 1021 155.35. So that's 102 and then we have another 103 which you know um for the custodians that will be uh remaining. So that gives us a total of about $25,000 for the year. Currently we have an expense of $298,000 with what the custodians that we currently have. So we will be saving some money on this. Um, again the plan is nobody is going to be left without a job because I do have one who is leaving and another one will be helping in the maintenance department and then uh one of them will be going into the cafeteria. Then I will keep three
048of the custodians, one in each school. the three uh lady custodians that will be staying, they will be cleaning the cafeteria because next year the plan is to have all of the students be at the uh eating breakfast in the cafeteria. The elementary students right now they've been eating breakfast and it's called breakfast after the bell, but it's really just kind of like a sack uh breakfast. And now because they are going to be making more food from scratch, the little ones will be able to enjoy that in the cafeteria as well. So the three ladies will be cleaning the cafeteria right after breakfast and then they will also clean. All three of them will help each other and clean right after lunch. All three of them will be, you know, cleaning the uh the
049field and then the gyms will be done by quality. So we should be we should be good. And then each one will have a u a school and whatever it need you know they need to do clean the bathrooms the hallways anything that needs to be done. The rest of it will be done by quality at the end of the the day like from 4:30 till about 8:30 at night. And will they come all five days? They come all No, they will come four days. Okay. Only when the kids are here. So, I'm seeking approval so that we can contract the the company and move forward with them. Any questions? Motion to approve. I'll make the motion second. I carries. All right, that's it. I see a motion to I'll make that motion because of
050the savings. What did I say? The last minute was last minute. Oh yeah, that was the best.
